The low end of the dial... that's where we've always found the abstract, eclectic & heavy bass tunes in the middle of the night!

ARTIST STATEMENT

Deaf Safari is an audio collage of subjects that interest me and speak of the world I live in.
It is an album composed of sampled recordings from the media landscape that has been the soundtrack to my life over the last ten years.

The most important development in my current music and as can be heard on Deaf Safari has been my understanding of the beauty and power of the spoken word. I have experienced severe indifference to contemporary pop and electronic music as a whole over the last many years, as I have felt that social comment of any relevance has been ignored by music in general.
Deaf Safari attempts to bring sociopolitical comment into my music without taking any specific stand.
Sampled outside of musical influence directly from the news; from preacher sermons or from contemporary African documentaries.
I have finally created a story with sound that I feel accurately conveys my personal experience with the African world I live in.

My musical influences on this album lie mostly with local Kwaito house. Deaf Safari is an experiment within certain boundaries of the 4/4 genre, to create my own South African "house" album.
I am proud and inspired about the South African Kwaito house scene.
However, as with my first three albums, "Thin Shoes In June“ (2001) - "4/4 Down The Stairs“ (2002) and "Dark Days Exit“ (2005), I am still interested in making strange and evocative music.

American Roots music from the earlier periods of the 20th century has deeply resonated with me during the making of this album.
The incredible field recordings by Alan Lomax of Negro prison and chain gang work songs, and the
beautiful early recordings of artists such as Leadbelly have had a major influence on Deaf Safari.

I am truly excited to release this album and to start performing in the music world again. It has been ten years since I released "Dark Days Exit , and although I have been purposefully absent from the music world, I have none the less never stopped making music.
I feel that I have finally arrived at a mature and challenging stage in my pursuit of making emotional music of relevance .

Who Loves You?

The black bird roared loudly from atop the chimney. It looked out upon the grassy fields which lay at the base of the house below. It cast an eerie shadow across the roof on which it sat, it was a haunted beast, a devilish instrument of witchcraft and pain. It's squawking could be heard for far and wide and it brought trouble across the land. Symbollic and hateful the crow would fly now, leaving with it a cursed trail of suffering and despair in its wake. 

Nickodemus & Alsarah unveil an enchanting release on Wonderwheel which has already been championed the likes of Gilles Peterson amongst others.

Sadhu Sensi - Afterburn (Original mix)

El español Alejandro Guillán bajo su alias Baiuca, remixó “Ilaló”, una de las canciones más interesantes del último álbum de estudio de Chancha Via Circuito llamado  “Bienaventuranza”, con la colaboración vocal de Mateo Kingman.
Esta versión cuenta con una impronta más electrónica que el original, en clave housera, con un pulso bailable que gira en torno a la voz del ecuatoriano Kingman y una melodía que viene desde Canale y su sensibilidad híbrida que combina dos mundos con envidiable sencillez. Un lujo que nos damos en DJ Mag Latinoamérica.

Bienaventuranza Remixes

PREMIERE: Chancha Via Circuito ft. Mateo Kingman "Ilaló" (Baiuca Remix)

'Jallalla' is out worldwide on June 7th.
Preview & Purchase: https://wonderwheelrecordings.bandcamp.com/album/jallalla

In 2017, Lagartijeando (Mati Zundel), released his second full length album ‘El Gran Poder,’ via Wonderwheel and subsequently hypnotized the masses with the way he laced the traditional Charango playing that he picked up traveling the Andes with the pulsing, digital-cumbia electronica that’d been popularized in the region by the likes of Chancha Via Circuito, Nicola Cruz, and beyond. El Gran Poder plucked Zundel from his small town of Dolores in Argentina and catapulted his sound onto a global stage. He was revered by the likes of The Fader and Bandcamp, who referred to him as an electro-folk alchemist - and that he is. 

On June 7, Lagartijeando casts a new spell with Jallalla, an ambitious new full length being released on Wonderwheel Recordings. Jallalla is a word used in Bolivia to celebrate something- and it’s a word that strengthens in meaning when more people say it together. Jallalla is an entire life in an album
